This isn't an English Defence League blog. Hence the word “beyond”. I was a member of the EDL until 2011 and went on my last demo in March 2012. Up until 2011, this blog was called 'EDL Extra'... This blog initially set out to focus primarily on Islam and the Islamisation of the UK. However, since that time the subjects covered have broadened to IQ tests, Baudrillard, global warming, sociobiology, Marx, Foucault, economics, etc.

What, can't the non-Leftist white working class be "persecuted" by definition? Can only blacks and Muslims be persecuted? Are you are racist?

Yes, the language is strong - but that's political rhetoric for you. I bet you have never question the use of the word "persecution" in any other case. Again, are you racist against the non-Leftist white working class?

They aren't being tortured yet. But those in the various Leftist Gulags on the 20th century were frequently and systematically tortured. (Fidel Castro had a thing for the systematic torture of gays - as does Islamic Iran.) And torture is rife in the Muslim world. Sharia law includes literal torture.

So, yes, in the future it is possible that literal torture could occur.
